Definitions
- the invention relates to an air cap for a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun, according to the preamble of claim 1, a nozzle arrangement for a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun, according to the preamble of claim 24, a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun, according to the preamble of claim 25 and a spray gun , in particular paint spray gun, according to the preamble of claim 26.
- XP055364477 describes an air cap for a paint spray gun, a nozzle arrangement for a paint spray gun and a paint spray gun.
- a spray gun in particular paint spray gun, has a paint nozzle on its head, which is screwed into the gun body.
- the paint nozzle often has a hollow cylindrical cone at its front end, from the front mouth of which the material to be sprayed emerges when the spray gun is in operation.
- the paint nozzle can also be conical in its front area.
- the gun head usually has an external thread, via which an air nozzle ring with an air cap arranged therein is screwed onto the gun head.
- the air cap has a central opening, the diameter of which is larger than the outer diameter of the paint nozzle cone or the outer diameter of the front end of a conical paint nozzle.
- the central opening of the air cap and the cone or the front end of the paint nozzle together form an annular gap.
- the so-called atomizing air emerges from this annular gap, which creates a vacuum on the end face of the paint nozzle in the nozzle arrangement described above, as a result of which the material to be sprayed is sucked out of the paint nozzle.
- the atomizing air hits the ink jet, which tears the ink jet into threads and ribbons. Because of their hydrodynamic instability, the interaction between the rapidly flowing compressed air and the ambient air, and because of aerodynamic disturbances, these threads and tapes disintegrate into droplets which are blown away by the atomizing air from the nozzle.
- the air cap often also has two horns, which are diametrically opposed to one another and project in the outflow direction beyond the annular gap mentioned and the material outlet opening.
- Two supply holes ie horn air supply channels, run from the back of the air cap to horn air channels in the horns.
- each horn has at least one horn air duct, but preferably each horn has at least two horn air ducts.
- Each horn air duct has a horn air opening on its outside, from which the horn air exits.
- the horn air ducts or openings are generally oriented so that they follow the longitudinal axis of the nozzle in the exit direction show the annular gap, so that the so-called horn air emerging from the horn air openings can influence the air which has already emerged from the annular gap or the color jet or the color mist which has already arisen at least in part.
- the originally conical cross section of the color beam (omnidirectional beam) or the color mist is compressed on its sides facing the horns and slightly lengthened in the direction perpendicular thereto. This creates a so-called wide jet, which allows a higher surface painting speed.
- the horn air also aims to atomize the color jet further.
- control openings can be made in the front surface of the air cap, radially outside of the central opening.
- the air emerging from the control openings influences the horn air, in particular it weakens the impact of the horn air on the paint jet.
- the control air also protects the air cap from contamination by carrying paint droplets away from the air cap. It also helps to further atomize the paint mist.
- the control air also acts on the round jet and causes a slight pre-deformation as well as an additional atomization.
- Such a nozzle arrangement is particularly suitable for use with a spray gun, in particular a paint spray gun, whereby not only paint but also adhesives or lacquers, in particular base and clear coats, can be sprayed both on a solvent basis and on a water basis, as well as liquids for the food industry, Wood preservatives or other liquids.
- Spray guns can be classified in particular in hand spray guns and automatic or robot guns.
- Handheld spray guns are mainly used by craftsmen, especially painters, carpenters and painters.
- Automatic and robot guns are usually used in conjunction with a painting robot or a painting machine for industrial applications. However, it is quite conceivable to also integrate a hand spray gun into a painting robot or into a painting machine.
- the spray gun can in particular have the following: a handle, an upper gun body, a compressed air connection, a trigger guard for opening an air valve and for moving the paint needle out of the material outlet opening of the paint nozzle, a round-wide jet regulation for adjusting the ratio of atomizing air and horn air for shaping the paint jet , an air micrometer for setting the spray pressure, a material quantity regulation for setting the maximum material volume flow, a material connection, paint channels for directing the material to be sprayed from a material inlet to the material outlet, compressed air channels, in particular wide jet channels for supplying the horns with air, and omnidirectional channels for supplying the annular gap and of the control openings with air, a hanging hook and an analog or digital Pressure measuring device.
- the paint spray gun can be designed as a flow cup gun with a paint cup arranged above the gun body, from which the material to be sprayed flows into and through the paint channels essentially by gravity and by negative pressure at the front end of the paint nozzle.
- the spray gun can, however, also be a side cup gun, in which the paint cup is arranged on the side of the gun body, and in which the material is also fed to the gun by gravity and by vacuum at the front end of the paint nozzle.
- the spray gun can also be used as a suction cup gun with a color cup arranged below the gun body, from which the material to be sprayed is sucked out of the cup essentially by means of negative pressure, in particular by utilizing the Venturi effect.
- it can be designed as a pressure cup gun, in which the cup is arranged below, above or to the side of the gun body and is pressurized, whereupon the medium to be sprayed is pressed out of the cup.
- a boiler gun in which the material to be sprayed is supplied to the spray gun by means of a hose from a paint container or by a pump.
- the nozzle arrangement and spray gun described above have proven themselves over many years.
- the quality of the spraying result largely depends on the quality of the spray gun used.
- High quality spray guns are manufactured with high precision and very tight manufacturing tolerances, since even deviations in the range of a few hundredths of a millimeter from the ideal size can have a negative impact on the quality of the atomization and thus on the spraying result.
- the quality of the atomization is also determined by the precise design of the so-called nozzle set.
- the nozzle set usually consists of the air nozzle, the paint nozzle and the paint needle.
- the air nozzle in turn consists of the air cap and the air nozzle ring.
- Decisive for the spray quality are in particular the diameter of the needle tip, the inner diameter of the central opening in the air cap, the horn air openings and the control openings, the angles of the openings or channels relative to the central axis of the central opening and the orientation of the openings or channels to one another.
- a good atomization quality is particularly important for the application of clear and basecoat (Unilack) on vehicles and vehicle parts.
- Unilack clear and basecoat
- inadequate spray quality has a negative impact on the color accuracy and gloss of the coating. Since the repainted vehicle part is often arranged directly next to a part with the original painting, inaccuracies are clearly noticeable here.
- a complaint from the customer of the vehicle painter makes post-processing necessary, which is time-consuming and costly.
- a spray pattern is usually created by using the spray gun, which is at a certain distance, for example 15 cm to 20 cm, in front of a substrate, for example paper, a paper with a scale, which is provided for creating a spray pattern, or a metal sheet , Paint or varnish is applied to this sheet of paper or sheet metal without moving the spray gun.
- the spraying time is approx. 1 to 2 seconds.
- the spray gun can be moved by means of a device, in particular perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the wide jet with a constant distance from the sheet or paper.
- the shape of the spray pattern produced in this way and the size of the droplets on the substrate provide information about the quality of the spray gun, in particular about the nozzles.
- the layer thickness of the spray pattern can be determined using the methods known in the prior art, for example using layer thickness measuring devices before or after drying the spray pattern, or the paint droplets and their size and position are still on the substrate during the flight, e.g. detected by laser diffraction.
- a spray pattern as described above does not have a uniform layer thickness over its length and width.
- the central core of the spray pattern has a high layer thickness, outside of the core the layer thickness generated is less.
- the layer thickness transition between the core and the outer area is fluid. If you apply the layer thickness over the length of the spray pattern, there is initially a flat increase from left to right, which marks the outer edge of the outer area. In the vicinity of the core, the layer thickness increases relatively steeply and ideally remains essentially constant over the length of the core, ie a plateau appears. At the edge of the core, the layer thickness drops relatively steeply, followed by a flatter drop towards the end of the outer area.
- the transition must not be too steep, as otherwise there is a risk of over-coating, for example Accidental application of twice the layer thickness occurs, which leads to so-called paint runs. Furthermore, the tests have shown that it is advantageous if the abovementioned plateau is as wide as possible, ie the core area of the spray pattern with the maximum layer thickness is as long as possible.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an air cap for a spray gun, a nozzle arrangement for a spray pistol and a spray pistol, with which a better coating quality is achieved than with air caps, nozzle arrangements and spray pistols according to the prior art.
- an air cap for a spray gun, a nozzle arrangement for a spray gun and a spray gun are to be provided which generate a spray pattern in which the layer thickness increases as steeply as possible over the length of the spray pattern in the transition between an outer region of the spray pattern and a core region and the core of the Spray pattern, ie the area with maximum layer thickness is as long as possible.
- the spray jet should not become too dry despite the larger core area and the transition between an outer area of the spray pattern and a core area should not be so steep that there is a risk of over-coating.
- an air cap for a spray gun in particular paint spray gun, which has at least one central opening which is delimited by a mouth and two horns, each with at least one inner and one outer horn air duct and one inner and one outer horn air opening, the The distance between the front end of the central opening and an axis which intersects the central axis of the central opening perpendicularly and passes through the center of an inner horn air opening is between 2.4 mm and 2.6 mm and the angle ( ⁇ ) between the central axis of an internal horn air duct and the central axis of the central opening is between 57 ° and 60 °.
- the inner horn air channels or openings are the horn air channels or openings which are located closer to the central opening of the air cap.
- the outer horn air channels or openings are the horn air channels or openings which are further away from the central opening of the air cap and are closer to the front end of the horn.
- the inner horn air channels of the two horns of the air cap preferably have the same drilling height.
- the term "tapping height" does not necessarily mean that the horn air channels have to be drilled into the horns. The term is only due to the state-of-the-art procedure, according to which the horny air channels are drilled into the horns. However, they can also be introduced into the horns using a laser, or the air cap can be produced by means of 3D printing, casting or die casting, the horn air channels and other channels and openings in the air cap being left out.
- the horn air ducts like other ducts and openings of the air cap, do not have to have a circular cross-section, but they can also at least partially have a square, rectangular, triangular, oval or other cross-section.
- the tapping height is more than 2.6 mm. A reduction in the drilling height showed one of the above-mentioned desired effects, namely a longer core area of the spray pattern, ie a wider plateau in the course of the layer thickness over the length of the spray pattern.
- a nozzle arrangement for a spray gun in particular paint spray gun, which has at least one paint nozzle, and furthermore has an air cap mentioned above.
- a spray gun in particular a paint spray gun, which has an air cap or a nozzle arrangement as mentioned above.
- Spray tests have shown that the drilling height of the inner horn air ducts cannot be reduced arbitrarily. Although there is a further widening of the above-mentioned plateau, due to the constant material throughput, the sprayed material is distributed over a larger core area and the spray jet becomes too dry. A tapping height of between 2.4 mm and 2.6 mm for the inner horn air ducts has proven to be a good compromise between the broadest possible plateau and sufficient wetness, i.e. the air cap, in particular the control holes, being otherwise the same. sufficient layer thickness. If the drilling height is further reduced, further adjustments to the air cap are necessary.
- the distance between the front end of the central opening and an axis which intersects the central axis of the central opening and runs through the center of an outer horn air opening is preferably between 6.0 and 6.6 mm, particularly preferably between 6 , 2 and 6.4 mm.
- it means the shortest distance between the front end of the central opening, ie the center of the foremost surface of the central opening, and the intersection of the central axis of the central opening with an axis that perpendicularly intersects the central axis of the central opening and passes through the center of an outer horn air opening. This distance is the drilling height of the outer horn air duct.
- the drilling height of the outer nozzles is about 5 mm to 6 mm.
- the drilling height was increased, the outer horn air channels or openings were set further out.
- the length of the horns can remain the same as in the prior art, but the horns can also be lengthened.
- the angle between the central axis of an outer horn air duct and the central axis of the central opening is preferably between 78 ° and 82 °, particularly preferably between 79 ° and 80.5 °.
- the angle has been increased compared to standard nozzles where the angle is less than 75 °. As with the inner horn air ducts, increasing the angle causes the horn air to hit the paint jet harder and thus improves atomization.
- the angle between the central axis of an outer horn air duct and the central axis of the central opening is defined as the tapping angle of the outer horn air duct
- the angle between the central axis of an inner horn air duct and the central axis of the central opening is defined as the tapping angle of the inner horn air duct
- the ratio between the tapping angle of the outer horn air duct and the tapping angle of the inner horn air duct is particularly preferably between 1.2 and 1.6.
- the tapping angle of the outer horn air duct is therefore 1.2 to 1.6 times as large as the tapping angle of the inner horn air duct.
- the distance between an axis which perpendicularly intersects the central axis of the central opening and runs through the center of an inner horn air opening and an axis running parallel to this axis through the center of an outer horn air opening is between 3.3 mm and 5.8 mm, particularly preferably between 3.4 mm and 4.2 mm.
- This measure is the distance between the inner and outer horn air openings along the central axis of the central opening, i.e. by the difference in the drilling heights of the inner and outer horn air duct.
- the horn air openings are further apart in the present invention than in conventional nozzles, in which the dimension is generally less than 3 mm.
- the inner diameter of at least one inner horn air opening is preferably between 1.1 mm and 1.3 mm, particularly preferably 1.2 mm.
- the inner diameter of at least one outer horn air opening is preferably between 1.4 mm and 1.6 mm, in particular 1.5 mm.
- the distance between the front end of the central opening and an axis which intersects the central axis of the central opening perpendicularly and runs through the center of an outer horn air opening is the so-called drilling height of the outer horn air opening.
- the ratio between the tapping height of the outer horn air opening and the inner diameter of the outer horn air opening is preferably between 3.8 and 4.5.
- the distance between the front end of the central opening and an axis that perpendicularly intersects the central axis of the central opening and passes through the center of an inner horn air opening is the drilling height of the inner horn air opening.
- the ratio between the tapping height of the inner horn air opening and the inner diameter of the inner horn air opening is preferably between 1.7 and 2.4.
- the ratio between the tapping height of the outer horn air opening and the tapping height of the inner horn air opening is particularly preferably between 2.0 and 3.0.
- the central axes of the inner and outer horn air channels are preferably perpendicular to the surfaces into which the horn air channels are introduced. This has the advantage that the risk of the drill slipping away when drilling the horn air ducts is less than if the ducts are drilled into a surface which is inclined with respect to the central axis of the drill.
- the holes can be positioned more precisely.
- the vertical drilling creates openings with a circular cross section, which is particularly desirable in the present case. If the channels were drilled into a surface which is inclined with respect to the central axis of the drill, openings with an elliptical cross section would be created.
- the areas in which the holes are made, i.e. the inner surfaces of the horns can be curved.
- the air cap particularly preferably has control openings in the region next to the mouth delimiting the central opening.
- These control openings which are preferably configured as bores, extend into the interior of the air cap and are supplied with air from there.
- the air emerging from the control openings the so-called control air
- the control air also acts on the round jet and causes a slight pre-deformation as well as an additional atomization. In both cases, the control air contributes to the further atomization of the paint jet and reduces the contamination of the air cap by spray mist, since it carries it away from the air cap.
- the air cap can each have three control openings arranged on two opposite sides of the central opening, which are arranged in the form of a triangle, a tip of the triangle being oriented in the direction of the inner or outer horn air openings.
- the control openings can have the same diameter, advantageously between 0.5 mm and 0.6 mm.
- control openings arranged in the region next to the mouth delimiting the central opening form an angle of 8 ° to 12 ° with the central axis of the central opening. They are preferably inclined in the direction of the spray jet, so that the control air can strike the horn air or the round jet.
- the angle of the inner i.e. the control opening located closer to the central opening between 9 ° and 11 °, the angle of the outer, i.e. control openings between 7 ° and 9 ° further away from the central opening.
- the central axes of the control openings are preferably perpendicular to the surfaces of the region into which the control openings are introduced. Similar to the horn air openings, this also has the advantage that the risk of the drill slipping away when drilling the control openings is lower than if the channels were drilled into a surface that is inclined with respect to the central axis of the drill.
- the holes can be positioned more precisely.
- the vertical drilling creates openings with a circular cross section, which is particularly desirable in the present case. If the openings were drilled into a surface which is inclined with respect to the central axis of the drill, openings with an elliptical cross section would result.
- An air cap is preferred in which the inner diameter of the central opening is between 3.5 mm and 3.7 mm.
- the wall thickness of the mouth delimiting the central opening is preferably between 0.60 mm and 0.75 mm, in particular in its front area.
- the opening delimiting the central opening preferably has a conical outer shape, the central axis of the central opening forming an angle of 25 ° to 35 ° with the outer surface of the opening delimiting the central opening.
- the currents prevailing at the air cap, in particular the spray jet cause entrainment of ambient air. It must be ensured that sufficient ambient air can always flow in, as otherwise turbulence occurs on the outside of the spray jet, which negatively affects the spray quality. For this reason, in order to make it easier for ambient air to flow in, most of the front surface of the air nozzle is also slightly conical.
- the area around which the central opening The delimiting mouth is chamfered in such a way that the surface is slightly lowered in the direction of the mouth delimiting the central opening. The purpose of this chamfer is also to reduce the contamination of the area with paint mist.
- An air cap is particularly preferred in which the central axes of an inner horn air opening and an outer horn air opening intersect at a point, this point lying on the central axis of the central opening of the air cap.
- the inner and outer horn air openings therefore aim at the same point or the same area on the spray jet. Because of the distraction and fanning out, i.e. Widening of the horn air jet by the control air is the actual point of impact or area of the horn air on the spray jet further away from the air cap than this intersection of the central axes of the horn air openings with the central axis of the central opening. Furthermore, it can be the case that the air from the inner horn air openings does not strike the spray jet in the same area as the air from the outer horn air openings.
- the distance between the front end of the central opening and the intersection of the central axes of an inner horn air duct and an outer horn air duct is preferably between 7.5 mm and 8.5 mm.
- the ratio between the distance from a horn air opening to the intersection of the central axis of an outer control opening with the central axis of the horn air duct and the distance from the intersection of the central axis of the outer control opening with the central axis of the horn air duct to the intersection of the central axis of the horn air duct with the central axis is central opening of the air cap, between 50:50 and 65:35.
- the center points of the horn air openings of both horns preferably lie in a line with the center point of the central opening. This means that in the top view of the air cap, a line runs through the center points of the horn air openings and also through the center point of the central opening of the air cap. This line is preferably a center line.
- the air cap is preferably made of brass, which is first pressed warm into a shape similar to the finished air cap before it is coated, preferably by a galvanic process. The semi-finished product is then finished by turning various surfaces and drilling the openings. After that, the Air cap connected with an air nozzle ring and attached to a spray gun.
- the air cap can also consist of a different material, for example a different metal or plastic, and can be produced by means of a casting or injection molding process or by means of 3D printing, uncoated or coated by means of another coating process.
- the paint nozzle has at least three V-shaped slots on the outside in the region of its front end, the bottoms of the V-shaped slots converging towards the front in the direction of a central axis of the paint nozzle.
- the depth of the V-shaped slots i.e. of the slots with a V-shaped cross section increases in the direction of the paint outlet of the paint nozzle.
- the bottoms of the V-shaped slots can already cut the inside diameter of the paint nozzle before the front end of the paint nozzle, or the bottoms of the V-shaped slots can cut the inside diameter of the paint nozzle essentially exactly at the front end of the paint nozzle.
- the bottoms of the V-shaped slots do not cut the inside diameter of the paint nozzle, i.e. at the front end of the paint nozzle, the bottoms of the V-shaped slots are spaced from the inside diameter of the paint nozzle.
- the V-shaped slots cause an additional atomization of the paint, in addition to the atomization at the central opening of the air cap.
- the bottoms of the slots preferably form an angle of 30 ° to 45 ° with the central axis of the paint nozzle.
- the average Sauter diameter (SMD) is the smallest and the uniformity of the atomization is best at this angle of incidence of the atomizing air on the paint jet.
- the front face of the paint nozzle can be conical, i.e.
- the opening angle is preferably between 80 ° and 100 °.
- the inner surface of the conical end surface preferably does not cut the outer surface of the paint nozzle at the front end of the paint nozzle, but a region of the front end surface between the conical inner surface and the cylindrical paint nozzle outer surface is designed flat. A vacuum can form in this flat area when the atomizing air emerges from the annular gap between the air cap and the paint nozzle, which draws the paint out of the paint nozzle.
- the paint nozzle of a nozzle arrangement according to the invention can be designed conically in its front region. This means that the paint nozzle does not have a hollow cylindrical cone at its front end, but the atomizing air is directed into the paint jet essentially at an angle that corresponds to the angle of the outer surface of the conical paint nozzle relative to the central paint nozzle axis.
- the angle of the outer surface of the conical paint nozzle relative to the central paint nozzle axis is preferably between 30 ° and 45 ° because here, as already described above, the mean Sauter diameter (SMD) is smallest and the uniformity of atomization is best.
- the air cap according to the invention is particularly suitable for use in a nozzle arrangement for a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun. It can be used with an air nozzle ring and a paint nozzle with a spray gun. These can be all types of spray guns described above for spraying different media.
- the spray gun can have a hollow needle, which can be designed to guide spray material or compressed air.
- a hollow needle carrying spray material for example, a higher material throughput or the spraying of two-component material is possible.
- the hollow needle is connected directly or indirectly to a material supply. If the hollow needle is designed to be compressed air, it can contribute to the atomization of the spray material by ejecting atomizing air.
- the hollow needle is directly or indirectly connected to a compressed air supply. In all cases, the hollow needle can be designed to conduct any volume flow. It is known to the person skilled in the art that the throughput depends on the inside diameter of the hollow needle and on the inlet pressure and volume flow.
- spray gun according to the invention can of course also have other components or configurations according to the prior art.
- Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of an air cap 1 according to the invention with two horns 3, into each of which a horn air supply duct 5 with a horn air supply duct central axis 6 is introduced.
- Fig. 1 does not show the actual proportions of an air cap according to the invention, but is only to be understood as a schematic representation.
- the air cap 1 has a central opening 7 with a central axis 9, which of a Mouth 11 is limited with a conical outer surface.
- the horn air supply channels 5 open into inner horn air channels 15 with inner horn air openings 15a and outer horn air channels 17 with outer horn air openings 17a.
- the horn air channels or horn air openings which are arranged closer to the central opening 7, are referred to as inner horn air channels 15 and inner horn air openings 15 a; the horn air channels or horn air openings, which are located further away from the central opening 7, are referred to as outer horn air channels 17 and outer horn air openings 17 a.
- the angle ⁇ with which the inner horn air channels 15 are introduced into the horns 3 with respect to the central axis 9 of the central opening 7 differs from the angle ⁇ with which the outer horn air channels 17 with respect to the central axis 9 of the central opening 7 in the horns 3 are introduced.
- the angles ⁇ of the inner horn air channels 15 are essentially the same, as are the angles ⁇ of the outer horn air channels 17.
- the angles ⁇ of the inner horn air channels 15 are smaller than the angles ⁇ of the outer horn air channels 17 Fig. 1 only one angle ⁇ and one angle ⁇ are shown on opposite sides of the central axis 9.
- the central axes 16, 18 of all four horn air ducts 15, 17 meet at a point D which lies on the central axis 9 of the central opening 7.
- the point C marks the drilling height of the outer horn air channels 17, the point B the drilling height of the inner horn air channels 15.
- the drilling height of an inner horn air channel 15 is the distance between the front end A of the central opening 7 in the air cap 1 and an axis 21, which perpendicularly intersects the central axis 9 of the central opening 7 and runs through the center of the inner horn air opening 15a.
- the drilling height of an outer horn air duct 17 is the distance between the front end A of the central opening 7 in the air cap 1 and an axis 23 which perpendicularly intersects the central axis 9 of the central opening 7 and runs through the center of the outer horn air opening 17a .
- the tapping height of the two inner horn air channels 15 is the same in each case, as is the tapping height of the two outer horn air channels 17.
- the central axes 6 of the horn air supply channels 5 are slightly inclined with respect to the central axis 9, ie the horn air supply channels 5 are introduced into the air cap 1 at a slight angle.
- the reason for this is that the horn air channels 15, 17 should be made as long as possible in order to achieve the longest possible guidance of the horn air, which is why the horn air supply channels 5 should be arranged as far as possible outside in the air cap 1, but at the same time when the horn air supply channels 5 are introduced as far as possible outside in the air cap 1 parallel to the central axis 9 due to a groove 13 in the air cap 1, the outer wall of the air cap 1 would become too thin in this area.
- the groove 13 which is preferably circumferential, serves to accommodate an in Fig. 1 Not shown locking ring, by means of which the air cap 1 in a Fig. 1 Air nozzle ring, also not shown, can be secured.
- the contact surface 19 of the air cap 1 lies against an inner wall of the air nozzle ring, an outer wall of the air nozzle ring lies against the retaining ring in the groove 13.
- the outer diameter of the air cap 1 is somewhat smaller than the inner diameter of the air nozzle ring.
- Control openings 25 are arranged in the area next to the mouth 11 delimiting the central opening 7.
- Fig. 1 only two control openings 25 can be seen, which are arranged on the cutting line through the air cap 1.
- the control openings 25 extend through the front wall of the air cap 1 to an inner region 27.
- the inner region can be formed from various conical and cylindrical surfaces.
- Paint nozzle not shown, which can be screwed into the gun body.
- the front end of the paint nozzle or a front cone of the paint nozzle is arranged in the area of the central opening 7 and forms an annular gap with the central opening 7.
- the paint nozzle can at least partially extend into the central opening 7, the front end can be set back from the central opening 7, be flush with the front end A of the central opening 7 or protrude beyond the front end A of the central opening 7.
- the atomizing air ie the air that emerges from the inner region 27 of the air cap 1 from the central opening 7 or from the annular gap described above, sucks the material to be sprayed from the paint nozzle, atomizes it and conveys the paint mist in the direction of the object to be coated.
- the air flows from the inner region 27 of the air cap 1 through the control openings 25.
- the part of the air supplied to the horn air supply channels 5 and horn air channels 15, 17 flows out of the horn air openings 15a, 17a in the direction of the spray jet, acts on it laterally and actually forms it conical beam into an elliptical wide beam.
- the so-called flowing out of the horn air openings 15a, 17a Horn air is hit by the so-called control air flowing out of the control openings 25, fanned out, ie widened, weakened and deflected.
- the control air also contributes to the atomization of the medium to be sprayed and carries the paint mist away from the air cap 1, in particular from the area 29 adjacent to the mouth 11, and thus reduces contamination of this area.
- the area 29 is inclined directly next to the mouth 11 delimiting the central opening 7.
- the front end of the mouth 11 can be set forward from the adjacent area 29 in order to further reduce contamination of the area 29 without lengthening the air cap 1 toward the front.
- an afterflow of ambient air to the outflow area of the atomizing air is facilitated, which, as already mentioned above, prevents undesirable turbulence in the area of the spray jet.
- Fig. 2 shows a top view of the in Fig. 1 Embodiment of an air cap 1 according to the invention shown in section.
- Fig. 1 shows the embodiment along the in Fig. 2 shown axis of symmetry 31 cut.
- the air cap 1 has three control openings 25, 26 arranged on two opposite sides of the central opening 7.
- three control openings 25, 26 are arranged in the form of a triangle, a tip of the triangle being oriented in the direction of the horn air openings 15a, 17a.
- control openings in each case one of the control openings, in the present case the control openings 25, is in a line with the horn air openings 15a, 17a and an imaginary line between the two adjacent control openings 26 is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 31.
- two control openings are arranged on two opposite sides of the central opening 7 in the air cap 1. All four control openings lie in a line with the horn air openings, preferably on an axis of symmetry corresponding to the axis of symmetry 31 of the air cap 1.
- FIG Fig. 2 also shows the center of the central opening 7 on the axis of symmetry 31 and on another axis of symmetry 35 lying perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 31.
- the area 29 next to the central opening 7 or next to the mouth 11 delimiting the central opening 7 differs from that in FIG Fig. 2 Area 33 shown above and below area 29.
- Area 33 is conical in such a way that the height of air cap 1 decreases towards the outside in order to allow ambient air to flow in to the flow area of the spray jet.
- the area 29 is inclined in the opposite direction, ie around the mouth 11 delimiting the central opening 7 there is a slight one Well, from which the mouth 11 is offset, whereby contamination of the area 29 is reduced.
- Fig. 3 shows in the upper part the schematic structure of a spray pattern 43 of a standard air cap and a spray pattern of an embodiment of the air cap according to the invention and in the lower part the course of the layer thickness of the spray pattern over the length of the spray pattern.
- the spray pattern 43 shown has an outer region 37 and a core region 39.
- the spray pattern drawn in solid lines is the spray pattern which was created with an exemplary embodiment of the air cap according to the invention, or a spray gun which is equipped with an exemplary embodiment of the air cap according to the invention.
- the in Fig. 3 Dotted area core area 41 shows the core area of a spray pattern which was created with an air cap according to the prior art or with a spray gun which is equipped with an air cap according to the prior art.
- the outer shape of the outer area of the spray pattern corresponds approximately to the outer shape of the outer area 37 of the spray pattern, which was created with an embodiment of the air cap according to the invention, or a spray gun which is equipped with an embodiment of the air cap according to the invention.
- Fig. 3 the outer boundary of the outer area of the spray pattern of an air cap according to the prior art is not shown separately. It can be seen from the spray pattern 43 that the spray pattern of an air cap according to the invention has a longer core area compared to the spray pattern of an air cap according to the prior art, but the overall length of the spray pattern is approximately the same. As already mentioned above, the boundaries of the interior and exterior are not clearly defined, but rather fluid.
- FIG. 3 A diagram 45 is shown, which shows a layer thickness curve in ⁇ m over a measuring position in mm.
- the auxiliary lines 47 show which measuring point in the diagram 45 is to be assigned to which location of the spray pattern 43.

- the wide jet was aligned vertically, the spray gun was moved from left to right.
- a 2K solvent-based clear coat was sprayed on.
- the material throughput of the paint nozzle corresponded to that of a 1.3 nozzle.
- the measuring position 0 mm in diagram 45 corresponds to the position of the central axis 9 in the central opening 7 in the air cap 1 Fig. 1 in front of the substrate to be coated, in this case the vertical sheet.
- the central axis 9 is perpendicular to the substrate.
- the minus area of the X axis of diagram 45 shows the layer thickness profile of the spray pattern along a first direction from the measurement position 0 to the outside, for example upwards, the plus area shows the layer thickness profile of the spray image along the opposite direction from the measurement position 0 outwards, eg downwards.
- the layer thickness of the spray pattern was therefore measured over a length or height of approximately 550 mm.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Luftkappe für eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1, eine Düsenanordnung für eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 24, eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 25 und eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 26.The invention relates to an air cap for a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun, according to the preamble of
In der XP055364477 werden eine Luftkappe für eine Farbspritzpistole, eine Düsenanordnung für eine Farbspritzpistole und eine Farbspritzpistole beschrieben.XP055364477 describes an air cap for a paint spray gun, a nozzle arrangement for a paint spray gun and a paint spray gun.
Gemäß dem Stand der Technik weist eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, an ihrem Kopf eine Farbdüse auf, welche in den Pistolenkörper eingeschraubt wird. Die Farbdüse weist an ihrem vorderen Ende häufig ein hohlzylindrisches Zäpfchen auf, aus deren vorderer Mündung beim Betrieb der Spritzpistole das zu verspritzende Material austritt. Die Farbdüse kann in ihrem vorderen Bereich jedoch auch konisch ausgestaltet sein. Der Pistolenkopf weist in der Regel ein Außengewinde auf, über das ein Luftdüsenring mit einer darin angeordneten Luftkappe am Pistolenkopf angeschraubt wird. Die Luftkappe weist eine zentrale Öffnung auf, deren Durchmesser größer ist als der Außendurchmesser des Farbdüsenzäpfchens bzw. der Außendurchmesser des vorderen Ende einer konischen Farbdüse. Die zentrale Öffnung der Luftkappe und das Zäpfchen bzw. das vordere Ende der Farbdüse bilden zusammen einen Ringspalt. Aus diesem Ringspalt tritt die sogenannte Zerstäuberluft aus, welche in der oben beschriebenen Düsenanordnung ein Vakuum an der Stirnfläche der Farbdüse erzeugt, wodurch das zu verspritzende Material aus der Farbdüse herausgesaugt wird. Die Zerstäuberluft trifft auf den Farbstrahl, wodurch der Farbstrahl in Fäden und Bänder zerrissen wird. Diese Fäden und Bänder zerfallen aufgrund ihrer hydrodynamischen Instabilität, der Wechselwirkung zwischen der schnell strömenden Druckluft und der Umgebungsluft sowie aufgrund von aerodynamischen Störungen zu Tröpfchen, welche von der Zerstäuberluft von der Düse weg geblasen werden.According to the prior art, a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun, has a paint nozzle on its head, which is screwed into the gun body. The paint nozzle often has a hollow cylindrical cone at its front end, from the front mouth of which the material to be sprayed emerges when the spray gun is in operation. However, the paint nozzle can also be conical in its front area. The gun head usually has an external thread, via which an air nozzle ring with an air cap arranged therein is screwed onto the gun head. The air cap has a central opening, the diameter of which is larger than the outer diameter of the paint nozzle cone or the outer diameter of the front end of a conical paint nozzle. The central opening of the air cap and the cone or the front end of the paint nozzle together form an annular gap. The so-called atomizing air emerges from this annular gap, which creates a vacuum on the end face of the paint nozzle in the nozzle arrangement described above, as a result of which the material to be sprayed is sucked out of the paint nozzle. The atomizing air hits the ink jet, which tears the ink jet into threads and ribbons. Because of their hydrodynamic instability, the interaction between the rapidly flowing compressed air and the ambient air, and because of aerodynamic disturbances, these threads and tapes disintegrate into droplets which are blown away by the atomizing air from the nozzle.
Die Luftkappe weist häufig ferner zwei Hörner auf, welche einander diametral gegenüberstehen und in Ausströmrichtung über den genannten Ringspalt und die Materialauslassöffnung hinausstehen. Von der Rückseite der Luftkappe verlaufen zwei Versorgungsbohrungen, d.h. Hornluftzuführkanäle, zu Hornluftkanälen in den Hörnern. In der Regel weist jedes Horn zumindest einen Hornluftkanal auf, bevorzugt weist jedes Horn jedoch zumindest zwei Hornluftkanäle auf. Jeder Hornluftkanal besitzt an seiner Außenseite eine Hornluftöffnung, aus welcher die Hornluft austritt. Die Hornluftkanäle bzw. -öffnungen sind in der Regel so orientiert, dass sie auf die Düsenlängsachse in Austrittsrichtung nach dem Ringspalt zeigen, sodass die aus den Hornluftöffnungen austretende sogenannte Hornluft die bereits aus dem Ringspalt ausgetretene Luft bzw. den Farbstrahl oder den bereits zumindest teilweise entstandenen Farbnebel beeinflussen können. Dadurch wird der ursprünglich konische Querschnitt des Farbstrahls (Rundstrahls) bzw. des Farbnebels an seinen den Hörnern zugewandten Seiten zusammengedrückt und in senkrecht dazu stehender Richtung leicht verlängert. Dadurch entsteht ein sogenannter Breitstrahl, welcher eine größere Flächenlackiergeschwindigkeit erlaubt. Neben der Verformung des Farbstrahls bezweckt die Hornluft eine weitere Zerstäubung des Farbstrahls.The air cap often also has two horns, which are diametrically opposed to one another and project in the outflow direction beyond the annular gap mentioned and the material outlet opening. Two supply holes, ie horn air supply channels, run from the back of the air cap to horn air channels in the horns. As a rule, each horn has at least one horn air duct, but preferably each horn has at least two horn air ducts. Each horn air duct has a horn air opening on its outside, from which the horn air exits. The horn air ducts or openings are generally oriented so that they follow the longitudinal axis of the nozzle in the exit direction show the annular gap, so that the so-called horn air emerging from the horn air openings can influence the air which has already emerged from the annular gap or the color jet or the color mist which has already arisen at least in part. As a result, the originally conical cross section of the color beam (omnidirectional beam) or the color mist is compressed on its sides facing the horns and slightly lengthened in the direction perpendicular thereto. This creates a so-called wide jet, which allows a higher surface painting speed. In addition to the deformation of the color jet, the horn air also aims to atomize the color jet further.
In die vordere Fläche der Luftkappe, radial außerhalb von der zentralen Öffnung, können sogenannte Steueröffnungen eingebracht sein. Die aus den Steueröffnungen austretende Luft beeinflusst die Hornluft, insbesondere schwächt sie den Aufprall der Hornluft auf den Farbstrahl ab. Ferner schützt die Steuerluft die Luftkappe vor Verschmutzung, indem sie Farbtröpfchen von der Luftkappe wegträgt. Außerdem trägt sie zur weiteren Zerstäubung des Farbnebels bei. Die Steuerluft wirkt auch auf den Rundstrahl und bewirkt eine leichte Vorverformung sowie auch hier eine zusätzliche Zerstäubung.So-called control openings can be made in the front surface of the air cap, radially outside of the central opening. The air emerging from the control openings influences the horn air, in particular it weakens the impact of the horn air on the paint jet. The control air also protects the air cap from contamination by carrying paint droplets away from the air cap. It also helps to further atomize the paint mist. The control air also acts on the round jet and causes a slight pre-deformation as well as an additional atomization.
Eine solche Düsenanordnung ist vor allem zur Verwendung mit einer Spritzpistole, insbesondere einer Farbspritzpistole geeignet, wobei nicht nur Farbe sondern auch Klebstoffe oder Lacke, insbesondere Basis- und Klarlacke, sowohl auf Lösemittelbasis als auch auf Wasserbasis verspritzt werden können, ebenso Flüssigkeiten für die Nahrungsmittelindustrie, Holzschutzmittel oder andere Flüssigkeiten. Spritzpistolen lassen sich insbesondere in Handspritzpistolen und Automatik- bzw. Roboterpistolen einordnen. Handspritzpistolen werden vor allem von Handwerkern, insbesondere von Malern, Schreinern und Lackierern verwendet. Automatik- und Roboterpistolen werden in der Regel in Verbindung mit einem Lackierroboter oder einer Lackiermaschine für industrielle Anwendungen genutzt. Allerdings ist es durchaus denkbar, auch eine Handspritzpistole in einen Lackierroboter oder in eine Lackiermaschine zu integrieren.Such a nozzle arrangement is particularly suitable for use with a spray gun, in particular a paint spray gun, whereby not only paint but also adhesives or lacquers, in particular base and clear coats, can be sprayed both on a solvent basis and on a water basis, as well as liquids for the food industry, Wood preservatives or other liquids. Spray guns can be classified in particular in hand spray guns and automatic or robot guns. Handheld spray guns are mainly used by craftsmen, especially painters, carpenters and painters. Automatic and robot guns are usually used in conjunction with a painting robot or a painting machine for industrial applications. However, it is quite conceivable to also integrate a hand spray gun into a painting robot or into a painting machine.
Die Spritzpistole kann insbesondere folgendes aufweisen: einen Griff, einen oberen Pistolenkörper, einen Druckluftanschluss, einen Abzugsbügel zum Öffnen eines Luftventils und zum Herausbewegen der Farbnadel aus der Materialauslassöffnung der Farbdüse, eine Rund-Breitstrahlregulierung zum Einstellen des Verhältnisses aus Zerstäuberluft und Hornluft zur Formung des Farbstrahls, ein Luftmikrometer zum Einstellen des Spritzdrucks, eine Materialmengenregulierung zum Einstellen des maximalen Materialvolumenstroms, einen Materialanschluss, Farbkanäle zum Leiten des zu verspritzenden Materials von einem Materialeinlass zum Materialauslass, Druckluftkanäle, insbesondere Breitstrahlkanäle zur Versorgung der Hörner mit Luft, und Rundstrahlkanäle zur Versorgung des Ringspalts und der Steueröffnungen mit Luft, einen Aufhängehaken und eine analoge oder digitale Druckmesseinrichtung. Sie kann jedoch auch weitere Komponenten aus dem Stand der Technik aufweisen. Die Farbspritzpistole kann als Fließbecherpistole mit oberhalb des Pistolenkörpers angeordnetem Farbbecher, aus dem das zu verspritzende Material im Wesentlichen durch Gravitation und durch Unterdruck am vorderen Ende der Farbdüse in und durch die Farbkanäle fließt, ausgestaltet sein. Bei der Spritzpistole kann es sich jedoch auch um eine Seitenbecherpistole handeln, bei der der Farbbecher seitlich am Pistolenkörper angeordnet ist, und bei der das Material ebenfalls durch Gravitation und durch Unterdruck am vorderen Ende der Farbdüse der Pistole zugeführt wird. Die Spritzpistole kann jedoch auch als Saugbecherpistole mit unterhalb des Pistolenkörpers angeordnetem Farbbecher, aus dem das zu verspritzende Material im Wesentlichen durch Unterdruck, insbesondere durch Ausnutzung des Venturi-Effekts, aus dem Becher gesaugt wird. Ferner kann sie als Druckbecherpistole ausgestaltet sein, bei der der Becher unterhalb, oberhalb oder seitlich am Pistolenkörper angeordnet ist und mit Druck beaufschlagt wird, woraufhin das zu verspritzende Medium aus dem Becher herausgedrückt wird. Weiterhin kann es sich um eine Kesselpistole handeln, bei der das zu verspritzende Material mittels eines Schlauchs aus einem Farbbehälter oder über eine Pumpe der Spritzpistole zugeführt wird.The spray gun can in particular have the following: a handle, an upper gun body, a compressed air connection, a trigger guard for opening an air valve and for moving the paint needle out of the material outlet opening of the paint nozzle, a round-wide jet regulation for adjusting the ratio of atomizing air and horn air for shaping the paint jet , an air micrometer for setting the spray pressure, a material quantity regulation for setting the maximum material volume flow, a material connection, paint channels for directing the material to be sprayed from a material inlet to the material outlet, compressed air channels, in particular wide jet channels for supplying the horns with air, and omnidirectional channels for supplying the annular gap and of the control openings with air, a hanging hook and an analog or digital Pressure measuring device. However, it can also have other components from the prior art. The paint spray gun can be designed as a flow cup gun with a paint cup arranged above the gun body, from which the material to be sprayed flows into and through the paint channels essentially by gravity and by negative pressure at the front end of the paint nozzle. The spray gun can, however, also be a side cup gun, in which the paint cup is arranged on the side of the gun body, and in which the material is also fed to the gun by gravity and by vacuum at the front end of the paint nozzle. However, the spray gun can also be used as a suction cup gun with a color cup arranged below the gun body, from which the material to be sprayed is sucked out of the cup essentially by means of negative pressure, in particular by utilizing the Venturi effect. Furthermore, it can be designed as a pressure cup gun, in which the cup is arranged below, above or to the side of the gun body and is pressurized, whereupon the medium to be sprayed is pressed out of the cup. Furthermore, it can be a boiler gun in which the material to be sprayed is supplied to the spray gun by means of a hose from a paint container or by a pump.
Die oben beschriebene Düsenanordnung und Spritzpistole haben sich über viele Jahre bewährt. Die Qualität des Spritzergebnisses hängt maßgeblich von der Qualität der verwendeten Spritzpistole ab. Qualitativ hochwertige Spritzpistolen werden hochpräzise mit sehr engen Fertigungstoleranzen hergestellt, da selbst Abweichungen im Bereich von wenigen hundertstel Millimetern vom Idealmaß negativen Einfluss auf die Qualität der Zerstäubung und somit auf das Spritzergebnis haben können. Die Qualität der Zerstäubung wird ferner durch die genaue Ausgestaltung des sogenannten Düsensatzes bestimmt. Der Düsensatz besteht in der Regel aus der Luftdüse, der Farbdüse und der Farbnadel. Die Luftdüse wiederum besteht aus der Luftkappe und dem Luftdüsenring. Ausschlaggebend für die Spritzqualität sind insbesondere der Durchmesser der Nadelspitze, die Innendurchmesser der zentralen Öffnung in der Luftkappe, der Hornluftöffnungen und der Steueröffnungen, die Winkel der Öffnungen bzw. Kanäle relativ zur Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung sowie die Ausrichtung der Öffnungen bzw. Kanäle zueinander.The nozzle arrangement and spray gun described above have proven themselves over many years. The quality of the spraying result largely depends on the quality of the spray gun used. High quality spray guns are manufactured with high precision and very tight manufacturing tolerances, since even deviations in the range of a few hundredths of a millimeter from the ideal size can have a negative impact on the quality of the atomization and thus on the spraying result. The quality of the atomization is also determined by the precise design of the so-called nozzle set. The nozzle set usually consists of the air nozzle, the paint nozzle and the paint needle. The air nozzle in turn consists of the air cap and the air nozzle ring. Decisive for the spray quality are in particular the diameter of the needle tip, the inner diameter of the central opening in the air cap, the horn air openings and the control openings, the angles of the openings or channels relative to the central axis of the central opening and the orientation of the openings or channels to one another.
Eine gute Zerstäubungsqualität ist besonders für die Applikation von Klar- und Basislack (Unilack) auf Fahrzeuge und Fahrzeugteile wichtig. Insbesondere bei Reparaturlackierungen hat eine unzureichende Spritzqualität negative Auswirkungen auf die Farbtongenauigkeit und den Glanz der Beschichtung. Da das nachlackierte Fahrzeugteil häufig direkt neben einem Teil mit ursprünglicher Lackierung angeordnet ist, fallen Ungenauigkeiten hier deutlich auf. Eine Reklamation des Kunden des Fahrzeuglackierers macht eine Nachbearbeitung notwendig, was mit einem hohen Zeit- und Kostenaufwand verbunden ist.A good atomization quality is particularly important for the application of clear and basecoat (Unilack) on vehicles and vehicle parts. In the case of refinishing in particular, inadequate spray quality has a negative impact on the color accuracy and gloss of the coating. Since the repainted vehicle part is often arranged directly next to a part with the original painting, inaccuracies are clearly noticeable here. A complaint from the customer of the vehicle painter makes post-processing necessary, which is time-consuming and costly.
Im Rahmen von Spritzversuchen wurde festgestellt, dass die Qualität der Beschichtung nicht nur von der Feinheit der Zerstäubung abhängt, sondern maßgeblich auch vom Verlauf der Schichtdicke der Beschichtung über die Länge bzw. Höhe des Spritzstrahls bzw. des Spritzbildes. Ein Spritzbild wird für gewöhnlich erstellt, indem mittels der Spritzpistole, die in einem bestimmten Abstand, beispielsweise 15 cm bis 20 cm, vor einem Substrat, bspw. Papier, einem Papier mit Skala, welches für die Erstellung eines Spritzbilds vorgesehen ist, oder einem Blech, Farbe oder Lack auf dieses Blatt Papier oder Blech aufgetragen wird, ohne die Spritzpistole zu bewegen. Die Spritzdauer beträgt ca. 1 bis 2 Sekunden. Alternativ kann die Spritzpistole mittels einer Vorrichtung insbesondere senkrecht zur Längsachse des Breitstrahls mit gleichbleibendem Abstand zum Blech oder Papier bewegt werden. Die Form des auf diese Weisen erzeugten Spritzbilds und die Größe der Tröpfchen auf dem Substrat geben Aufschluss über die Qualität der Spritzpistole, insbesondere über die Düsen.In the course of spray tests, it was found that the quality of the coating not only depends on the fineness of the atomization, but also significantly on the course of the layer thickness of the coating over the length or height of the spray jet or the spray pattern. A spray pattern is usually created by using the spray gun, which is at a certain distance, for example 15 cm to 20 cm, in front of a substrate, for example paper, a paper with a scale, which is provided for creating a spray pattern, or a metal sheet , Paint or varnish is applied to this sheet of paper or sheet metal without moving the spray gun. The spraying time is approx. 1 to 2 seconds. Alternatively, the spray gun can be moved by means of a device, in particular perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the wide jet with a constant distance from the sheet or paper. The shape of the spray pattern produced in this way and the size of the droplets on the substrate provide information about the quality of the spray gun, in particular about the nozzles.
Die Schichtdicke des Spritzbilds kann mittels der im Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahren ermittelt werden, bspw. mittels Schichtdickenmessgeräte vor oder nach Trocknung des Spritzbilds, oder die Farbtröpfchen sowie deren Größe und Position werden noch während des Flugs auf das Substrat z.B. mittels Laserbeugungsverfahren erfasst.The layer thickness of the spray pattern can be determined using the methods known in the prior art, for example using layer thickness measuring devices before or after drying the spray pattern, or the paint droplets and their size and position are still on the substrate during the flight, e.g. detected by laser diffraction.
Ein wie oben beschriebenes Spritzbild besitzt über seine Länge und seine Breite keine einheitliche Schichtdicke. Der zentrale Kern des Spritzbilds besitzt eine hohe Schichtdicke, außerhalb des Kerns ist die erzeugte Schichtdicke geringer. Der Schichtdicken-Übergang zwischen Kern und Außenbereich ist fließend. Trägt man die Schichtdicke über die Länge des Spritzbildes auf, so ergibt sich von links nach rechts zunächst ein flacher Anstieg, welcher den äußeren Rand des Außenbereichs markiert. In der Nähe des Kerns steigt die Schichtdicke relativ steil an und bleibt über den Längenverlauf des Kerns im Idealfall im Wesentlichen konstant, d.h. es zeigt sich ein Plateau. Am Rand des Kerns fällt die Schichtdicke relativ steil ab, gefolgt von einem flacheren Abfall gegen Ende des Außenbereichs. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass eine gleichmäßige Beschichtung mit besserer Qualität erzeugt werden kann, je schärfer der Übergang zwischen Kern- und Außenbereich ist, d.h. je steiler der Verlauf der Schichtdicke über die Länge des Spritzbilds beim Übergang vom Außenbereich in den Kernbereich ist. Während des Lackiervorgangs bewegt der Lackierer die betätigte Spritzpistole in mäanderförmigen Bahnen, wobei sich die Bahnen in einem Bereich zwischen 30 % bis 50 % Ihrer Höhe überlappen, d.h. etwa das untere oder obere Drittel einer Bahn überlappt mit dem oberen bzw. unteren Drittel der vorhergehenden Bahn. Ein schärfer definierter Kernbereich ermöglicht es dem Lackierer, die Kernbereiche der Spritzbahnen während des Lackiervorgangs möglichst aneinandergrenzend so aufzutragen, dass eine gleichmäßige Gesamtschichtstärke entsteht. Allerdings darf der Übergang auch nicht zu steil sein, da sonst die Gefahr der Überbeschichtung, z.B. durch versehentliches Auftragen der doppelten Schichtstärke, entsteht, was zu sogenannten Farbläufern führt. Ferner haben die Versuche gezeigt, dass es vorteilhaft ist, wenn das oben genannte Plateau möglichst breit, d.h. der Kernbereich des Spritzbilds mit maximaler Schichtdicke möglichst lang ist.A spray pattern as described above does not have a uniform layer thickness over its length and width. The central core of the spray pattern has a high layer thickness, outside of the core the layer thickness generated is less. The layer thickness transition between the core and the outer area is fluid. If you apply the layer thickness over the length of the spray pattern, there is initially a flat increase from left to right, which marks the outer edge of the outer area. In the vicinity of the core, the layer thickness increases relatively steeply and ideally remains essentially constant over the length of the core, ie a plateau appears. At the edge of the core, the layer thickness drops relatively steeply, followed by a flatter drop towards the end of the outer area. It has been shown that a uniform coating with better quality can be produced, the sharper the transition between the core and the outer region, ie the steeper the course of the layer thickness over the length of the spray pattern during the transition from the outer region to the core region. During the painting process, the painter moves the actuated spray gun in meandering paths, the paths overlapping in a range between 30% and 50% of their height, i.e. the lower or upper third of a path overlaps with the upper or lower third of the previous path . A sharper defined core area enables the painter to apply the core areas of the spray tracks as contiguously as possible during the painting process so that a uniform overall layer thickness is created. However, the transition must not be too steep, as otherwise there is a risk of over-coating, for example Accidental application of twice the layer thickness occurs, which leads to so-called paint runs. Furthermore, the tests have shown that it is advantageous if the abovementioned plateau is as wide as possible, ie the core area of the spray pattern with the maximum layer thickness is as long as possible.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, eine Luftkappe für eine Spritzpistole, eine Düsenanordnung für eine Spritzpistole und eine Spritzpistole bereitzustellen, mit welcher eine bessere Beschichtungsqualität erzielt wird als mit Luftkappen, Düsenanordnungen und Spritzpistolen gemäß dem Stand der Technik. Insbesondere sollen eine Luftkappe für eine Spritzpistole, eine Düsenanordnung für eine Spritzpistole und eine Spritzpistole bereitgestellt werden, die ein Spritzbild erzeugen, bei dem die Schichtdicke über die Länge des Spritzbilds im Übergang zwischen einem Außenbereich des Spritzbilds und einem Kernbereich möglichst steil ansteigt und der Kern des Spritzbilds, d.h. der Bereich mit maximaler Schichtdicke, möglichst lang ist. Gleichzeitig soll der Spritzstrahl trotz des größeren Kernbereich nicht zu trocken werden und der Übergang zwischen einem Außenbereich des Spritzbilds und einem Kernbereich soll nicht derart steil sein, dass die Gefahr einer Überbeschichtung entsteht.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide an air cap for a spray gun, a nozzle arrangement for a spray pistol and a spray pistol, with which a better coating quality is achieved than with air caps, nozzle arrangements and spray pistols according to the prior art. In particular, an air cap for a spray gun, a nozzle arrangement for a spray gun and a spray gun are to be provided which generate a spray pattern in which the layer thickness increases as steeply as possible over the length of the spray pattern in the transition between an outer region of the spray pattern and a core region and the core of the Spray pattern, ie the area with maximum layer thickness is as long as possible. At the same time, the spray jet should not become too dry despite the larger core area and the transition between an outer area of the spray pattern and a core area should not be so steep that there is a risk of over-coating.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Luftkappe für eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, gelöst, welche zumindest eine zentrale Öffnung, die von einer Mündung begrenzt wird und zwei Hörner mit zumindest je einem inneren und einem äußeren Hornluftkanal und einer inneren und einer äußeren Hornluftöffnung aufweist, wobei der Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende der zentralen Öffnung und einer Achse, welche die Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt einer inneren Hornluftöffnung verläuft, zwischen 2,4 mm und 2,6 mm beträgt und wobei der Winkel (α) zwischen der Zentralachse eines inneren Hornluftkanals und der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung zwischen 57° und 60° beträgt.This object is achieved by an air cap for a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun, which has at least one central opening which is delimited by a mouth and two horns, each with at least one inner and one outer horn air duct and one inner and one outer horn air opening, the The distance between the front end of the central opening and an axis which intersects the central axis of the central opening perpendicularly and passes through the center of an inner horn air opening is between 2.4 mm and 2.6 mm and the angle (α) between the central axis of an internal horn air duct and the central axis of the central opening is between 57 ° and 60 °.
Gemeint ist damit der kürzeste Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende der zentralen Öffnung, d.h. dem Mittelpunkt der vordersten Fläche der zentralen Öffnung, und dem Schnittpunkt der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung mit einer Achse, welche die Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt einer inneren Hornluftöffnung verläuft. Bei diesem Abstand handelt es sich um die sogenannte Anbohrhöhe des inneren Hornluftkanals. Bei den inneren Hornluftkanälen bzw. -öffnungen handelt es sich um die Hornluftkanäle bzw. -öffnungen die sich näher an der zentralen Öffnung der Luftkappe befinden. Demgegenüber handelt es sich bei den äußeren Hornluftkanälen bzw. -öffnungen um die Hornluftkanäle bzw. -öffnungen die weiter von der zentralen Öffnung der Luftkappe entfernt sind und sich näher an dem vorderen Ende des Horns befinden. Vorzugsweise haben die inneren Hornluftkanäle der beiden Hörner der Luftkappe die gleiche Anbohrhöhe. Der Begriff "Anbohrhöhe" bedeutet nicht zwangsläufig, dass die Hornluftkanäle durch Bohren in die Hörner eingebracht werden müssen. Der Begriff ist lediglich dem Vorgehen gemäß dem Stand der Technik geschuldet, wonach die Hornluftkanäle in die Hörner gebohrt werden. Sie können jedoch auch mittels Laser in die Hörner eingebracht werden oder die Luftkappe kann mittels 3D-Druck, Guss oder Druckguss hergestellt werden, wobei die Hornluftkanäle und andere Kanäle und Öffnungen der Luftkappe ausgespart werden. Dementsprechend müssen die Hornluftkanäle, ebenso wie andere Kanäle und Öffnungen der Luftkappe, auch keinen kreisrunden Querschnitt besitzen, sondern sie können auch zumindest teilweise einen quadratischen, rechteckigen, dreieckigen, ovalen oder sonstigen Querschnitt besitzen. Bei Luftkappen gemäß dem Stand der Technik beträgt die Anbohrhöhe mehr als 2,6 mm. Eine Senkung der Anbohrhöhe zeigte einen der oben genannten erwünschten Effekte, nämlich einen längeren Kernbereich des Spritzbilds, d.h. ein breiteres Plateau im Verlauf der Schichtdicke über die Länge des Spritzbilds.This means the shortest distance between the front end of the central opening, ie the center of the foremost surface of the central opening, and the intersection of the central axis of the central opening with an axis which perpendicularly intersects the central axis of the central opening and through the center of an inner one Horn air opening runs. This distance is the so-called drilling height of the inner horn air duct. The inner horn air channels or openings are the horn air channels or openings which are located closer to the central opening of the air cap. In contrast, the outer horn air channels or openings are the horn air channels or openings which are further away from the central opening of the air cap and are closer to the front end of the horn. The inner horn air channels of the two horns of the air cap preferably have the same drilling height. The term "tapping height" does not necessarily mean that the horn air channels have to be drilled into the horns. The term is only due to the state-of-the-art procedure, according to which the horny air channels are drilled into the horns. However, they can also be introduced into the horns using a laser, or the air cap can be produced by means of 3D printing, casting or die casting, the horn air channels and other channels and openings in the air cap being left out. Accordingly, the horn air ducts, like other ducts and openings of the air cap, do not have to have a circular cross-section, but they can also at least partially have a square, rectangular, triangular, oval or other cross-section. In the case of air caps according to the prior art, the tapping height is more than 2.6 mm. A reduction in the drilling height showed one of the above-mentioned desired effects, namely a longer core area of the spray pattern, ie a wider plateau in the course of the layer thickness over the length of the spray pattern.
Die Aufgabe wird ferner durch eine Düsenanordnung für eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, gelöst, welche zumindest eine Farbdüse aufweist, wobei sie ferner eine oben genannte Luftkappe aufweist.The object is also achieved by a nozzle arrangement for a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun, which has at least one paint nozzle, and furthermore has an air cap mentioned above.
Die Aufgabe wird außerdem durch eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, gelöst, die eine oben genannte Luftkappe oder eine oben genannte Düsenanordnung aufweist.The object is also achieved by a spray gun, in particular a paint spray gun, which has an air cap or a nozzle arrangement as mentioned above.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Advantageous refinements are the subject of the dependent claims.
Spritzversuche haben ergeben, dass die Anbohrhöhe der inneren Hornluftkanäle nicht beliebig gesenkt werden kann. Zwar ergibt sich eine weitere Verbreiterung des oben genannten Plateaus, dabei verteilt sich aufgrund des gleichbleibenden Materialdurchsatzes das verspritzte Material jedoch auf einen größeren Kernbereich und der Spritzstrahl wird zu trocken. Eine Anbohrhöhe zwischen 2,4 mm und 2,6 mm für die inneren Hornluftkanäle haben sich bei ansonsten gleichbleibender Ausgestaltung der Luftkappe, insbesondere der Steuerbohrungen, als guter Kompromiss zwischen einem möglichst breiten Plateau und ausreichender Nässe, d.h. ausreichender Schichtstärke, herausgestellt. Wird die Anbohrhöhe weiter reduziert, sind weitere Anpassungen der Luftkappe nötig.Spray tests have shown that the drilling height of the inner horn air ducts cannot be reduced arbitrarily. Although there is a further widening of the above-mentioned plateau, due to the constant material throughput, the sprayed material is distributed over a larger core area and the spray jet becomes too dry. A tapping height of between 2.4 mm and 2.6 mm for the inner horn air ducts has proven to be a good compromise between the broadest possible plateau and sufficient wetness, i.e. the air cap, in particular the control holes, being otherwise the same. sufficient layer thickness. If the drilling height is further reduced, further adjustments to the air cap are necessary.
Vorzugsweise beträgt bei der erfindungsgemäßen Luftkappe der Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende der zentralen Öffnung und einer Achse, welche die Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt einer äußeren Hornluftöffnung verläuft, zwischen 6,0 und 6,6 mm, besonders bevorzugt zwischen 6,2 und 6,4 mm. Entsprechend der obigen Beschreibung ist damit gemeint, der kürzeste Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende der zentralen Öffnung, d.h. dem Mittelpunkt der vordersten Fläche der zentralen Öffnung, und dem Schnittpunkt der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung mit einer Achse, welche die Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt einer äußeren Hornluftöffnung verläuft. Bei diesem Abstand handelt es sich um die Anbohrhöhe des äußeren Hornluftkanals. Bei herkömmlichen Düsen beträgt die Anbohrhöhe der äußeren Düsen etwa 5 mm bis 6 mm. Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung wurde die Anbohrhöhe also erhöht, die äußeren Hornluftkanäle bzw. -öffnungen wurden weiter nach außen gesetzt. Die Länge der Hörner kann gleich bleiben wie beim Stand der Technik, die Hörner können jedoch auch verlängert werden.In the air cap according to the invention, the distance between the front end of the central opening and an axis which intersects the central axis of the central opening and runs through the center of an outer horn air opening is preferably between 6.0 and 6.6 mm, particularly preferably between 6 , 2 and 6.4 mm. As described above, it means the shortest distance between the front end of the central opening, ie the center of the foremost surface of the central opening, and the intersection of the central axis of the central opening with an axis that perpendicularly intersects the central axis of the central opening and passes through the center of an outer horn air opening. This distance is the drilling height of the outer horn air duct. With conventional nozzles, the drilling height of the outer nozzles is about 5 mm to 6 mm. In the present invention, the drilling height was increased, the outer horn air channels or openings were set further out. The length of the horns can remain the same as in the prior art, but the horns can also be lengthened.
Der Winkel zwischen der Zentralachse eines äußeren Hornluftkanals und der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung beträgt bevorzugt zwischen 78° und 82°, besonders bevorzugt zwischen 79° und 80,5°. Der Winkel wurde im Vergleich zu Standard-Düsen, bei denen der Winkel bei unter 75° liegt, vergrößert. Wie bei den inneren Hornluftkanälen bewirkt die Vergrößerung der Winkel ein härteres Auftreffen der Hornluft auf den Farbstrahl und damit eine bessere Zerstäubung.The angle between the central axis of an outer horn air duct and the central axis of the central opening is preferably between 78 ° and 82 °, particularly preferably between 79 ° and 80.5 °. The angle has been increased compared to standard nozzles where the angle is less than 75 °. As with the inner horn air ducts, increasing the angle causes the horn air to hit the paint jet harder and thus improves atomization.
Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung ist der Winkel zwischen der Zentralachse eines äußeren Hornluftkanals und der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung definiert als der Anbohrwinkel des äußeren Hornluftkanals, der Winkel zwischen der Zentralachse eines inneren Hornluftkanals und der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung ist definiert als der Anbohrwinkel des inneren Hornluftkanals. Besonders bevorzugt beträgt das Verhältnis zwischen dem Anbohrwinkel des äußeren Hornluftkanals und dem Anbohrwinkel des inneren Hornluftkanals zwischen 1,2 und 1,6. Der Anbohrwinkel des äußeren Hornluftkanals ist also 1,2- bis 1,6-mal so groß wie der Anbohrwinkel des inneren Hornluftkanals.In the context of the present invention, the angle between the central axis of an outer horn air duct and the central axis of the central opening is defined as the tapping angle of the outer horn air duct, the angle between the central axis of an inner horn air duct and the central axis of the central opening is defined as the tapping angle of the inner horn air duct . The ratio between the tapping angle of the outer horn air duct and the tapping angle of the inner horn air duct is particularly preferably between 1.2 and 1.6. The tapping angle of the outer horn air duct is therefore 1.2 to 1.6 times as large as the tapping angle of the inner horn air duct.
Bevorzugt beträgt der Abstand zwischen einer Achse, welche die Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt einer inneren Hornluftöffnung verläuft, und einer parallel zu dieser Achse verlaufende Achse durch den Mittelpunkt einer äußeren Hornluftöffnung zwischen 3,3 mm und 5,8 mm, besonders bevorzugt zwischen 3,4 mm und 4,2 mm. Bei diesem Maß handelt es sich um den Abstand zwischen innerer und äußerer Hornluftöffnung entlang der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung, d.h. um die Differenz der Anbohrhöhen von innerem und äußerem Hornluftkanal. Die Hornluftöffnungen liegen bei der vorliegenden Erfindung weiter auseinander als bei herkömmlichen Düsen, bei denen das Maß in der Regel bei unter 3 mm liegt.The distance between an axis which perpendicularly intersects the central axis of the central opening and runs through the center of an inner horn air opening and an axis running parallel to this axis through the center of an outer horn air opening is between 3.3 mm and 5.8 mm, particularly preferably between 3.4 mm and 4.2 mm. This measure is the distance between the inner and outer horn air openings along the central axis of the central opening, i.e. by the difference in the drilling heights of the inner and outer horn air duct. The horn air openings are further apart in the present invention than in conventional nozzles, in which the dimension is generally less than 3 mm.
Vorzugsweise beträgt der Innendurchmesser zumindest einer inneren Hornluftöffnung zwischen 1,1 mm und 1,3 mm, besonders bevorzugt 1,2 mm.The inner diameter of at least one inner horn air opening is preferably between 1.1 mm and 1.3 mm, particularly preferably 1.2 mm.
Der Innendurchmesser zumindest einer äußeren Hornluftöffnung beträgt bevorzugt zwischen 1,4 mm und 1,6 mm, insbesondere 1,5 mm.The inner diameter of at least one outer horn air opening is preferably between 1.4 mm and 1.6 mm, in particular 1.5 mm.
Wie oben bereits erwähnt, handelt es sich bei dem Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende der zentralen Öffnung und einer Achse, welche die Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt einer äußeren Hornluftöffnung verläuft, um die sogenannte Anbohrhöhe der äußeren Hornluftöffnung. Bevorzugt beträgt das Verhältnis zwischen Anbohrhöhe der äußeren Hornluftöffnung und Innendurchmesser der äußeren Hornluftöffnung zwischen 3,8 und 4,5.As already mentioned above, the distance between the front end of the central opening and an axis which intersects the central axis of the central opening perpendicularly and runs through the center of an outer horn air opening is the so-called drilling height of the outer horn air opening. The ratio between the tapping height of the outer horn air opening and the inner diameter of the outer horn air opening is preferably between 3.8 and 4.5.
Dementsprechend handelt es sich bei dem Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende der zentralen Öffnung und einer Achse, welche die Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt einer inneren Hornluftöffnung verläuft, um die Anbohrhöhe der inneren Hornluftöffnung. Das Verhältnis zwischen Anbohrhöhe der inneren Hornluftöffnung und Innendurchmesser der inneren Hornluftöffnung beträgt vorzugsweise zwischen 1,7 und 2,4.Accordingly, the distance between the front end of the central opening and an axis that perpendicularly intersects the central axis of the central opening and passes through the center of an inner horn air opening is the drilling height of the inner horn air opening. The ratio between the tapping height of the inner horn air opening and the inner diameter of the inner horn air opening is preferably between 1.7 and 2.4.
Das Verhältnis zwischen der Anbohrhöhe der äußeren Hornluftöffnung und der Anbohrhöhe der inneren Hornluftöffnung beträgt besonders bevorzugt zwischen 2,0 und 3,0.The ratio between the tapping height of the outer horn air opening and the tapping height of the inner horn air opening is particularly preferably between 2.0 and 3.0.
Bevorzugt stehen die Zentralachsen der inneren und äußeren Hornluftkanäle senkrecht zu den Flächen, in die die Hornluftkanäle eingebracht sind. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Gefahr des Wegrutschens des Bohrers beim Bohren der Hornluftkanäle geringer ist als bei einem Einbohren der Kanäle in eine Fläche, welche gegenüber der Zentralachse des Bohrers geneigt ist. Die Bohrungen können exakter positioniert werden. Ferner werden durch das senkrechte Bohren Öffnungen mit kreisrundem Querschnitt erzeugt, was insbesondere im vorliegenden Fall erwünscht ist. Bei einem Einbohren der Kanäle in eine Fläche, welche gegenüber der Zentralachse des Bohrers geneigt ist, entstünden Öffnungen mit elliptischem Querschnitt. Die Flächen in die die Bohrungen eingebracht sind, d.h. die Innenflächen der Hörner, können gekrümmt sein.The central axes of the inner and outer horn air channels are preferably perpendicular to the surfaces into which the horn air channels are introduced. This has the advantage that the risk of the drill slipping away when drilling the horn air ducts is less than if the ducts are drilled into a surface which is inclined with respect to the central axis of the drill. The holes can be positioned more precisely. Furthermore, the vertical drilling creates openings with a circular cross section, which is particularly desirable in the present case. If the channels were drilled into a surface which is inclined with respect to the central axis of the drill, openings with an elliptical cross section would be created. The areas in which the holes are made, i.e. the inner surfaces of the horns can be curved.
Besonders bevorzugt weist die Luftkappe im Bereich neben der die zentrale Öffnung begrenzenden Mündung Steueröffnungen auf. Diese Steueröffnungen, die vorzugsweise als Bohrungen ausgestaltet sind, reichen bis in das Innere der Luftkappe und werden von dort mit Luft versorgt. Die aus den Steueröffnungen austretende Luft, die sogenannte Steuerluft, trifft auf die aus den Hornluftöffnungen austretende Hornluft und lenkt diese um und fächert den Hornluftstrahl auf, d.h. sie verbreitert ihn und schwächt den Hornluftstrahl ab. Die Steuerluft wirkt auch auf den Rundstrahl und bewirkt eine leichte Vorverformung sowie auch hier eine zusätzliche Zerstäubung. In beiden Fällen trägt die Steuerluft mit zur weiteren Zerstäubung des Farbstrahls bei und vermindert die Verschmutzung der Luftkappe durch Sprühnebel, da sie diesen von der Luftkappe wegträgt.The air cap particularly preferably has control openings in the region next to the mouth delimiting the central opening. These control openings, which are preferably configured as bores, extend into the interior of the air cap and are supplied with air from there. The air emerging from the control openings, the so-called control air, hits the horn air emerging from the horn air openings and deflects it and fans the horn air jet, ie it widens it and weakens the horn air jet. The control air also acts on the round jet and causes a slight pre-deformation as well as an additional atomization. In both cases, the control air contributes to the further atomization of the paint jet and reduces the contamination of the air cap by spray mist, since it carries it away from the air cap.
Insbesondere kann die Luftkappe jeweils drei auf zwei sich gegenüberliegenden Seiten der zentralen Öffnung angeordnete Steueröffnungen aufweisen, welche in Form eines Dreiecks angeordnet sind, wobei eine Spitze des Dreiecks in Richtung der inneren oder äußeren Hornluftöffnungen ausgerichtet ist. Die Steueröffnungen können den gleichen Durchmesser aufweisen, vorteilhafterweise zwischen 0,5 mm und 0,6 mm.In particular, the air cap can each have three control openings arranged on two opposite sides of the central opening, which are arranged in the form of a triangle, a tip of the triangle being oriented in the direction of the inner or outer horn air openings. The control openings can have the same diameter, advantageously between 0.5 mm and 0.6 mm.
Besonders bevorzugt wird eine Luftkappe, bei der die im Bereich neben der die zentrale Öffnung begrenzenden Mündung angeordneten Steueröffnungen mit der Zentralachse der zentralen Mündung einen Winkel von 8° bis 12° einschließen. Dabei sind sie vorzugsweise in Richtung des Spritzstrahls geneigt, sodass die Steuerluft auf die Hornluft oder auf den Rundstrahl treffen kann. Besonders bevorzugt beträgt der Winkel der inneren, d.h. der näher an der zentralen Öffnung angeordneten Steueröffnung zwischen 9° und 11°, der Winkel der äußeren, d.h. weiter von der zentralen Öffnung weg angeordneten Steueröffnungen zwischen 7° und 9°.An air cap is particularly preferred in which the control openings arranged in the region next to the mouth delimiting the central opening form an angle of 8 ° to 12 ° with the central axis of the central opening. They are preferably inclined in the direction of the spray jet, so that the control air can strike the horn air or the round jet. The angle of the inner, i.e. the control opening located closer to the central opening between 9 ° and 11 °, the angle of the outer, i.e. control openings between 7 ° and 9 ° further away from the central opening.
Vorzugsweise stehen die Zentralachsen der Steueröffnungen senkrecht zu den Flächen des Bereichs, in die die Steueröffnungen eingebracht sind. Ähnlich wie bei den Hornluftöffnungen hat dies auch hier den Vorteil, dass die Gefahr des Wegrutschens des Bohrers beim Bohren der Steueröffnungen geringer ist als bei einem Einbohren der Kanäle in eine Fläche, welche gegenüber der Zentralachse des Bohrers geneigt ist. Die Bohrungen können exakter positioniert werden. Ferner werden durch das senkrechte Bohren Öffnungen mit kreisrundem Querschnitt erzeugt, was insbesondere im vorliegenden Fall erwünscht ist. Bei einem Einbohren der Öffnungen in eine Fläche, welche gegenüber der Zentralachse des Bohrers geneigt ist, entstünden Öffnungen mit elliptischem Querschnitt.The central axes of the control openings are preferably perpendicular to the surfaces of the region into which the control openings are introduced. Similar to the horn air openings, this also has the advantage that the risk of the drill slipping away when drilling the control openings is lower than if the channels were drilled into a surface that is inclined with respect to the central axis of the drill. The holes can be positioned more precisely. Furthermore, the vertical drilling creates openings with a circular cross section, which is particularly desirable in the present case. If the openings were drilled into a surface which is inclined with respect to the central axis of the drill, openings with an elliptical cross section would result.
Bevorzugt wird eine Luftkappe, bei der der Innendurchmesser der zentralen Öffnung zwischen 3,5 mm und 3,7 mm beträgt. Die Wandstärke der die zentrale Öffnung begrenzenden Mündung beträgt vorzugsweise zwischen 0,60 mm und 0,75 mm, insbesondere in ihrem vorderen Bereich.An air cap is preferred in which the inner diameter of the central opening is between 3.5 mm and 3.7 mm. The wall thickness of the mouth delimiting the central opening is preferably between 0.60 mm and 0.75 mm, in particular in its front area.
Vorzugsweise weist die die zentrale Öffnung begrenzende Mündung eine konische Außenform auf, wobei die Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung mit der Außenfläche der die zentrale Öffnung begrenzenden Mündung einen Winkel von 25° bis 35° einschließt. Die an der Luftkappe herrschenden Strömungen, insbesondere der Spritzstrahl, verursachen ein Mitreißen von Umgebungsluft. Es muss gewährleistet sein, dass stets genügend Umgebungsluft nachströmen kann, da ansonsten Verwirbelungen am Außenbereich des Spritzstrahls entstehen, welche die Spritzqualität negativ beeinflussen. Aus diesem Grund, um ein leichteres Nachströmen von Umgebungsluft zu ermöglichen, ist auch der größte Teil der Luftdüsenfrontfläche leicht konisch ausgestaltet. Der Bereich um die die zentrale Öffnung begrenzende Mündung hingegen ist derart abgeschrägt, dass die Fläche in Richtung der die zentrale Öffnung begrenzende Mündung leicht abgesenkt ist. Diese Abschrägung hat auch den Zweck, die Verschmutzung des Bereichs mit Farbnebel zu vermindern.The opening delimiting the central opening preferably has a conical outer shape, the central axis of the central opening forming an angle of 25 ° to 35 ° with the outer surface of the opening delimiting the central opening. The currents prevailing at the air cap, in particular the spray jet, cause entrainment of ambient air. It must be ensured that sufficient ambient air can always flow in, as otherwise turbulence occurs on the outside of the spray jet, which negatively affects the spray quality. For this reason, in order to make it easier for ambient air to flow in, most of the front surface of the air nozzle is also slightly conical. The area around which the central opening The delimiting mouth, on the other hand, is chamfered in such a way that the surface is slightly lowered in the direction of the mouth delimiting the central opening. The purpose of this chamfer is also to reduce the contamination of the area with paint mist.
Besonders bevorzugt wird eine Luftkappe bei der sich die Zentralachsen einer inneren Hornluftöffnung und einer äußeren Hornluftöffnung in einem Punkt schneiden, wobei dieser Punkt auf der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung der Luftkappe liegt. Die inneren und die äußeren Hornluftöffnungen zielen also auf den gleichen Punkt bzw. den gleichen Bereich am Spritzstrahl. Aufgrund der Ablenkung und Auffächerung, d.h. Verbreiterung des Hornluftstrahls durch die Steuerluft liegt der tatsächliche Auftreffpunkt bzw. -bereich der Hornluft auf dem Spritzstrahl weiter von der Luftkappe entfernt als dieser Schnittpunkt der Zentralachsen der Hornluftöffnungen mit der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung. Ferner kann es dadurch sein, dass die Luft aus den inneren Hornluftöffnungen nicht im gleichen Bereich auf den Spritzstrahl auftrifft wie die Luft aus den äußeren Hornluftöffnungen.An air cap is particularly preferred in which the central axes of an inner horn air opening and an outer horn air opening intersect at a point, this point lying on the central axis of the central opening of the air cap. The inner and outer horn air openings therefore aim at the same point or the same area on the spray jet. Because of the distraction and fanning out, i.e. Widening of the horn air jet by the control air is the actual point of impact or area of the horn air on the spray jet further away from the air cap than this intersection of the central axes of the horn air openings with the central axis of the central opening. Furthermore, it can be the case that the air from the inner horn air openings does not strike the spray jet in the same area as the air from the outer horn air openings.
Bevorzugt beträgt der Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende der zentralen Öffnung und dem Schnittpunkt der Zentralachsen eines inneren Hornluftkanals und eines äußeren Hornluftkanals zwischen 7,5 mm und 8,5 mm.The distance between the front end of the central opening and the intersection of the central axes of an inner horn air duct and an outer horn air duct is preferably between 7.5 mm and 8.5 mm.
Vorzugsweise beträgt das Verhältnis zwischen dem Abstand von einer Hornluftöffnung zu dem Schnittpunkt der Zentralachse einer äußeren Steueröffnung mit der Zentralachse des Hornluftkanals und dem Abstand von dem Schnittpunkt der Zentralachse der äußeren Steueröffnung mit der Zentralachse des Hornluftkanals zu dem Schnittpunkt der Zentralachse des Hornluftkanals mit der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung der Luftkappe, zwischen 50:50 und 65:35. Das bedeutet, die Zentralachse einer äußeren Steuerluftöffnung schneidet die Zentralachse zumindest einer Hornluftöffnung in etwa auf halber Strecke zwischen Hornluftöffnung und dem Schnittpunkt der Zentralachse der Hornluftöffnung mit der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung oder etwas näher an der Zentralachse der zentralen Öffnung.The ratio between the distance from a horn air opening to the intersection of the central axis of an outer control opening with the central axis of the horn air duct and the distance from the intersection of the central axis of the outer control opening with the central axis of the horn air duct to the intersection of the central axis of the horn air duct with the central axis is central opening of the air cap, between 50:50 and 65:35. This means that the central axis of an external control air opening intersects the central axis of at least one horn air opening approximately halfway between the horn air opening and the intersection of the central axis of the horn air opening with the central axis of the central opening or somewhat closer to the central axis of the central opening.
Vorzugsweise liegen bei der erfindungsgemäßen Luftkappe die Mittelpunkte der Hornluftöffnungen beider Hörner in einer Linie mit dem Mittelpunkt der zentralen Öffnung. Dies bedeutet, dass in der Draufsicht auf die Luftkappe eine Linie durch die Mittelpunkte der Hornluftöffnungen auch durch den Mittelpunkt der zentralen Öffnung der Luftkappe verläuft. Vorzugsweise handelt es sich bei dieser Linie um eine Mittellinie.In the air cap according to the invention, the center points of the horn air openings of both horns preferably lie in a line with the center point of the central opening. This means that in the top view of the air cap, a line runs through the center points of the horn air openings and also through the center point of the central opening of the air cap. This line is preferably a center line.
Die Luftkappe besteht bevorzugt aus Messing, welches zunächst warm in eine der fertigen Luftkappe ähnliche Form gepresst wird, bevor es, vorzugsweise durch ein galvanisches Verfahren, beschichtet wird. Anschließend wird das Halbfabrikat durch Drehen verschiedener Flächen und Bohren der Öffnungen fertig bearbeitet. Danach kann die Luftkappe mit einem Luftdüsenring verbunden und an einer Spritzpistole angebracht werden. Selbstverständlich kann die Luftkappe auch aus einem anderen Material, z.B. aus einem anderen Metall oder auch aus Kunststoff bestehen und mittels eines Guss- oder Spritzgussverfahrens oder mittels 3D-Druck hergestellt werden, unbeschichtet oder mittels eines anderen Beschichtungsverfahrens beschichtet werden.The air cap is preferably made of brass, which is first pressed warm into a shape similar to the finished air cap before it is coated, preferably by a galvanic process. The semi-finished product is then finished by turning various surfaces and drilling the openings. After that, the Air cap connected with an air nozzle ring and attached to a spray gun. Of course, the air cap can also consist of a different material, for example a different metal or plastic, and can be produced by means of a casting or injection molding process or by means of 3D printing, uncoated or coated by means of another coating process.
Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Düsenanordnung weist die Farbdüse an der Außenseite im Bereich ihres vorderen Endes zumindest drei V-förmige Schlitze auf, wobei die Böden der V-förmigen Schlitze nach vorne hin in Richtung einer Zentralachse der Farbdüse konvergieren. Die Tiefe der V-förmigen Schlitze, d.h. der Schlitze mit V-förmigem Querschnitt, nimmt in Richtung des Farbauslasses der Farbdüse zu. Die Böden der V-förmigen Schlitze können den Innendurchmesser der Farbdüse bereits vor dem vorderen Ende der Farbdüse schneiden oder die Böden der V-förmigen Schlitze können den Innendurchmesser der Farbdüse im Wesentlichen genau am vorderen Ende der Farbdüse schneiden. Bevorzugt schneiden die Böden der V-förmigen Schlitze den Innendurchmesser der Farbdüse jedoch nicht, d.h. am vorderen Ende der Farbdüse sind die Böden der V-förmigen Schlitze vom Innendurchmesser der Farbdüse beabstandet. Die V-förmigen Schlitze bewirken eine zusätzliche Zerstäubung der Farbe, zusätzlich zur Zerstäubung an der zentralen Öffnung der Luftkappe. Vorzugsweise schließen die Böden der Schlitze mit der Zentralachse der Farbdüse einen Winkel von 30° bis 45° ein. Bei diesem Auftreffwinkel der Zerstäuberluft auf den Farbstrahl ist der mittlere Sauter-Durchmesser (SMD) am kleinsten und die Gleichmäßigkeit der Zerstäubung am besten. Die vordere Stirnfläche der Farbdüse kann konisch ausgestaltet sein, d.h. die Farbdüse erweitert sich in Richtung ihres Auslasses. Der Öffnungswinkel beträgt bevorzugt zwischen 80° und 100°. Bevorzugt schneidet die Innenfläche der konischen Stirnfläche die Außenfläche der Farbdüse am vorderen Ende der Farbdüse nicht, sondern ein Bereich der vorderen Stirnfläche zwischen konischer Innenfläche und zylindrischer Farbdüsen-Außenfläche ist plan ausgestaltet. An diesem planen Bereich kann sich beim Austritt der Zerstäuberluft aus dem Ringspalt zwischen Luftkappe und Farbdüse ein Vakuum ausbilden, das die Farbe aus der Farbdüse heraussaugt.In a preferred embodiment of the nozzle arrangement according to the invention, the paint nozzle has at least three V-shaped slots on the outside in the region of its front end, the bottoms of the V-shaped slots converging towards the front in the direction of a central axis of the paint nozzle. The depth of the V-shaped slots, i.e. of the slots with a V-shaped cross section increases in the direction of the paint outlet of the paint nozzle. The bottoms of the V-shaped slots can already cut the inside diameter of the paint nozzle before the front end of the paint nozzle, or the bottoms of the V-shaped slots can cut the inside diameter of the paint nozzle essentially exactly at the front end of the paint nozzle. Preferably, however, the bottoms of the V-shaped slots do not cut the inside diameter of the paint nozzle, i.e. at the front end of the paint nozzle, the bottoms of the V-shaped slots are spaced from the inside diameter of the paint nozzle. The V-shaped slots cause an additional atomization of the paint, in addition to the atomization at the central opening of the air cap. The bottoms of the slots preferably form an angle of 30 ° to 45 ° with the central axis of the paint nozzle. The average Sauter diameter (SMD) is the smallest and the uniformity of the atomization is best at this angle of incidence of the atomizing air on the paint jet. The front face of the paint nozzle can be conical, i.e. the paint nozzle widens in the direction of its outlet. The opening angle is preferably between 80 ° and 100 °. The inner surface of the conical end surface preferably does not cut the outer surface of the paint nozzle at the front end of the paint nozzle, but a region of the front end surface between the conical inner surface and the cylindrical paint nozzle outer surface is designed flat. A vacuum can form in this flat area when the atomizing air emerges from the annular gap between the air cap and the paint nozzle, which draws the paint out of the paint nozzle.
Die Farbdüse einer erfindungsgemäßen Düsenanordnung kann in ihrem vorderen Bereich konisch ausgestaltet sein. Das bedeutet, die Farbdüse weist an ihrem vorderen Ende kein hohlzylindrisches Zäpfchen auf, sondern die Zerstäuberluft wird im Wesentlichen in einem Winkel der dem Winkel der Außenfläche der konischen Farbdüse relativ zur Farbdüsenzentralachse entspricht in den Farbstrahl geleitet. Vorzugsweise beträgt der Winkel der Außenfläche der konischen Farbdüse relativ zur Farbdüsenzentralachse zwischen 30° und 45°, da hier, wie oben bereits beschrieben, der mittlere Sauter-Durchmesser (SMD) am kleinsten und die Gleichmäßigkeit der Zerstäubung am besten ist.The paint nozzle of a nozzle arrangement according to the invention can be designed conically in its front region. This means that the paint nozzle does not have a hollow cylindrical cone at its front end, but the atomizing air is directed into the paint jet essentially at an angle that corresponds to the angle of the outer surface of the conical paint nozzle relative to the central paint nozzle axis. The angle of the outer surface of the conical paint nozzle relative to the central paint nozzle axis is preferably between 30 ° and 45 ° because here, as already described above, the mean Sauter diameter (SMD) is smallest and the uniformity of atomization is best.
Die erfindungsgemäße Luftkappe ist besonders zur Verwendung in einer Düsenanordnung für eine Spritzpistole, insbesondere Farbspritzpistole, geeignet. Sie kann zusammen mit einem Luftdüsenring und einer Farbdüse mit einer Spritzpistole verwendet werden. Dabei kann es sich um alle oben beschriebenen Arten von Spritzpistolen zum Verspritzen von verschiedenen Medien handeln.The air cap according to the invention is particularly suitable for use in a nozzle arrangement for a spray gun, in particular paint spray gun. It can be used with an air nozzle ring and a paint nozzle with a spray gun. These can be all types of spray guns described above for spraying different media.
Die Spritzpistole kann eine Hohlnadel aufweisen, welche zum Führen von Spritzmaterial oder Druckluft ausgestaltet sein kann. Mit einer Spritzmaterial führenden Hohlnadel ist beispielsweise ein höherer Materialdurchsatz oder das Verspritzen von Zweikomponentenmaterial möglich. Die Hohlnadel ist hierfür direkt oder indirekt mit einer Materialversorgung verbunden. Ist die Hohlnadel Druckluft führend ausgestaltet, so kann sie durch den Ausstoß von Zerstäuberluft mit zur Zerstäubung des Spritzmaterials beitragen. Die Hohlnadel ist hierfür direkt oder indirekt mit einer Druckluftversorgung verbunden. In allen Fällen kann die Hohlnadel zum Leiten eines beliebigen Volumenstroms ausgestaltet sein. Dem Fachmann ist bekannt, dass der Durchsatz vom Innendurchmesser der Hohlnadel und vom Eingangsdruck- und Volumenstrom abhängig ist.The spray gun can have a hollow needle, which can be designed to guide spray material or compressed air. With a hollow needle carrying spray material, for example, a higher material throughput or the spraying of two-component material is possible. For this purpose, the hollow needle is connected directly or indirectly to a material supply. If the hollow needle is designed to be compressed air, it can contribute to the atomization of the spray material by ejecting atomizing air. For this purpose, the hollow needle is directly or indirectly connected to a compressed air supply. In all cases, the hollow needle can be designed to conduct any volume flow. It is known to the person skilled in the art that the throughput depends on the inside diameter of the hollow needle and on the inlet pressure and volume flow.
Des Weiteren kann die erfindungsgemäße Spritzpistole selbstverständlich auch andere Komponenten oder Ausgestaltungen gemäß dem Stand der Technik aufweisen.Furthermore, the spray gun according to the invention can of course also have other components or configurations according to the prior art.

Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel treffen sich die Zentralachsen 16, 18 aller vier Hornluftkanäle 15, 17 in einem Punkt D, welcher auf der Zentralachse 9 der zentralen Öffnung 7 liegt. Der Punkt C markiert die Anbohrhöhe der äußeren Hornluftkanäle 17, der Punkt B die Anbohrhöhe der inneren Hornluftkanäle 15. Bei der Anbohrhöhe eines inneren Hornluftkanals 15 handelt es sich um den Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende A der zentralen Öffnung 7 in der Luftkappe 1 und einer Achse 21, welche die Zentralachse 9 der zentralen Öffnung 7 senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt der inneren Hornluftöffnung 15a verläuft. Bei der Anbohrhöhe eines äußeren Hornluftkanals 17 handelt es sich um den Abstand zwischen dem vorderen Ende A der zentralen Öffnung 7 in der Luftkappe 1 und einer Achse 23, welche die Zentralachse 9 der zentralen Öffnung 7 senkrecht schneidet und durch den Mittelpunkt der äußeren Hornluftöffnung 17a verläuft. Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Anbohrhöhe der beiden inneren Hornluftkanäle 15 jeweils gleich, ebenso die Anbohrhöhe der beiden äußeren Hornluftkanäle 17.In the present exemplary embodiment, the
Die Zentralachsen 6 der Hornluftzuführkanäle 5 sind gegenüber der Zentralachse 9 leicht geneigt, d.h. die Hornluftzuführkanäle 5 sind leicht schräg in die Luftkappe 1 eingebracht. Der Grund liegt darin, dass die Hornluftkanäle 15, 17 möglichst lang ausgestaltet werden sollen, um eine möglichst lange Führung der Hornluft zu erzielen, weshalb die Hornluftzuführkanäle 5 möglichst weit außen in der Luftkappe 1 angeordnet sein sollen, gleichzeitig jedoch bei einem Einbringen der Hornluftzuführkanäle 5 möglichst weit außen in der Luftkappe 1 parallel zur Zentralachse 9 aufgrund einer Nut 13 in der Luftkappe 1 die äußere Wandung der Luftkappe 1 in diesem Bereich zu dünn werden würde. Durch die geneigten Hornluftzuführkanäle 5 besteht eine ausreichende Wandstärke auch im Bereich der Nut 13 bei ausreichender Länge der Hornluftkanäle 15, 17. Die Nut 13, welche vorzugsweise umlaufend ausgestaltet ist, dient der Aufnahme eines in
